NASP created a Policy Playbook designed to help state associations engage in advocacy around any issue. Users of this guide are encouraged to review the contents of the Policy Playbook for helpful suggestions for systems level promotion of the NASP Practice Model.

This section of the NASP Practice Model Implementation Guide is geared more towards an individual's advocacy at the building or district level. The eight advocacy steps below provide a broad landscape for evaluating advocacy needs and planning advocacy actions and should be considered as suggestions rather than a recipe for advocacy. Think creatively, broadly, and collaboratively with others in your school or district about how the materials in this section may be adapted for use in your individual setting.
